A Message from the Transcon Team

Welcome to the 45th annual Simmsational Simmental Sale...

Congratulations to the long time Simmental breeders that have been a part of this sale for numerous years. Also a big thank you to the most recent consignors who have opened up their herds and are bringing their very best to Moose Jaw.

This is a great mix of livestock breeders and an exceptional set of cattle on offer. The powerful set of bred heifers are second to none. Females that are a great representation of the Simmental breed. Females that could very well be herd builders and foundation genetics in the industry.

The select group of open heifers are equally as powerful and exciting and will definitely have their place in the industry as they mature into momma cows. Whether its a powerful bred heifer or a fancy open heifer you are searching for, Simmsational 2022 has it. The quality runs high in the offering and these cattle are right for the times and right for the industry moving forward.

On behalf of the team at Transcon and the group of consignors, we invite you to Moose Jaw on Thursday December 8th to be part of Simmsational 2022. In the event you are unable to attend the sale, but would like to purchase cattle, give one of us a call and we can go over the sale offering with you .

Look foward to visiting with you at the sale!

Welcome to Simmsational 2022 at Johnstone Auction Mart, Moose Jaw, SK on Thursday December 8th. This will be the 45th edition. I can’t believe it’s that time of year again. It seems just like a few months ago was the 2021 sale. We had a dry year again, not much rain, but timely rains. I think we’ve have enough feed gathered up and our grain crops weren’t too bad. Everyone is healthy at our place, which is most important. The grandkids are busy with sports and 4-H. Brodyn is off to college at Olds, AB. Brenda and I can’t believe we have grandkids graduating already.

Calf prices are at an all time high this fall and cull cow prices remain very strong for this time of year. It’s good to see the commercial cattle industry doing well and being profitable.

Again, we will be offering ten bred heifers to Simmsational and we are very proud of the our offering this year; it may be the best group ever. Led by four outstanding fullblood heifers, three polled and our lead off Full Fleck heifer 133J, an outstanding Houston daughter out of Precious Thing 402T. The black and reds are led by four R Plus Yuma daughters, 2 red and 2 black. We couldn’t be more pleased with the Yuma females, they’re going to make great cows. These ten heifers are all bred to calving ease bulls and all have been A.I. bred with no exposures.

Come join us at Johnstone Auction Mart on Thursday, December 8th for the 45th edition of the Simmsational Sale. There will be some great cattle on offer by all consignors. The sale will be carried on DLMS also. If you can’t make it to the sale, give a call to the consignors or sale management.

From all of us at LaBatte Simmentals we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, filled with good health, prosperity and happiness.

P.S. Grandkids are all doing great, they’re healthy, busy and full of energy. The only problem is they’re just growing up too fast for Grandma and Grandpa.

This is truly a sale feature!

NON-DILUTER

This Full Fleck Houston daughter is something special. She’s mothered by an exceptional mother cow, FGAF Precious Thing 402T. She was the deepest, thickest, most powerful cow that ever walked our pasture and in her last years she walked at Anchor D Simmentals, our partner in the Pre cious Thing. Her sire, PRL Houston 05H is an older pedigree now but a pedigree that really influenced our fullblood herd years ago. We paid a lot of money for him at that time, but he was worth every dollar of it and a lot more. He sired great bulls and even better females . Precious Thing 133J is a lot like her mother, big, powerful, deep, very stylish, and correct. She is setting up a beautiful udder, pigmented teats and dark hooves also and as a bonus she’s bred to the very popular NAC Battle Cry 4F bull. He’s a bull that has really made a mark in the Black Gold program, both bulls and heifers.

This is the first time ever in our program that we are retaining a 50% interest in a female that we’re selling. She is just too good and has too much potential to part with all of her. There’s no more of these that can be made, as Precious Thing isn’t here anymore. Plus, there are no embryos in the tank of this mating. We are offering full possession to the buyer and can’t wait to work with and for our new partner. Bred

NON-DILUTER

Another really good Sunny Valley Canon daughter that has mother cow written all over her. Dark red, deep, and broody and setting up a really good udder, with small teat size. These Canon daughters are all broody and have great dispositions, something very important at our place. Her mother is very long, clean made Mr. Adonis 96Z (Stuey) female that has done a great job for us. These Stuey daughters really produce and Adonis 96Z is maybe one of the greatest Simmental bulls that ever walked. And again, bred to Battle Cry.

Bred April 18th to NAC Battle Cry 4F CSA #1267450 – No Exposure

NON-DILUTER

Another feature of our fullbloods. This smooth polled Sunny Valley Canon 86E daughter is a tank, as broody as they come. She is deep, stylish and mothered by a great cow, a Standout daughter who as a bred heifer was our pick of the heifers and we decided to retain her and we are glad we did. She has an excellent Black Gold Elevation heifer in the keeper pen this year.

Her sire, Sunny Valley Canon has done a great job for us, and we should be using him a lot more than we do. He’s homo polled and a tank and now we’re realizing how good his females are. As an added bonus 175J is bred to the great Battle Cry bull. She will be easy to find sale day.

Bred April 7th to NAC Battle Cry 4F CSA #1267450 – No Exposure

NON-DILUTER - HOMO POLLED

A good smooth polled Sunny Valley Canon daughter out of a really good polled Eclectic daughter we purchased from Lakeview Simmentals as a bred heifer. When we decided to get back into Fullbloods we purchased a package of bred heifers and a few heifer calves from Curtis Mattson of Lakeview Simmentals. He is one of the pioneers of Simmental with a membership number of under 1000. Quite a few of the heifers were polled as Curtis has worked on that for a lot of years. These cattle have really worked well for us, and some being polled was a real bonus. Don’t overlook this heifer, her Battle Cry heifer or bull will have lots of potential.

Bred April 13th & 21st to NAC Battle Cry 4F CSA #1267450 – No Exposure

HETERO POLLED

The first of the good R Plus Yuma daughters offered in our portion of the sale. We’re really impressed with how the Yuma daughters have turned out. They’re big broody females and it looks like there setting up really nice udders. 144J is an eye catcher with a nice white splash on her forehead. She is mothered by a Bentley daughter going back to the black baldy cow Tri-R Ms Blake, the mother IPU Black Cinch. This heifer is stylish and very easy doing and bred to IPU Dillinger 80B the calving ease Bootlegger X Pocahontas 2Y son is an added bonus. We still use Dillinger in our heifer pen and the results have been very good.

Bred April 17th to IPU 2Y Dillinger 80B CSA #1128510 – No Exposure

HETERO POLLED

Another really good Yuma daughter going back to a black Max Factor daughter we purchased from Triple R Simmentals out of the Pembina Triangle sale in Manitoba. She’s worked out very well for us. Fresca 84J is very similar in type and quality of the Yuma 144J heifer. She’s deep, broody and stylish. She’s bred to the calving ease bull WLB Top Tier who has done a great job for us. He calves easy, his bulls are some of the highlights of our bull sale, heifers are progressing nicely, just an all around great bull. If you’re into EPD’s, take a look at 84J’s.

Bred April 20th to WLB Top Tier 456G CSA #1288193 – No Exposure

HOMO POLLED

This homo polled R Plus Yuma daughter is a real sweetheart. Long bodied, broody, really nice fronted and an attractive head. Her mother was purchased out of the Sim Power sale as a feature red heifer from Ultra Livestock. A heifer we are really really pleased with. 11J is setting up a really nice udder, has a really good set of EPD’s, just a cow in the making. She’s mated to the popular black baldy calving bull, SRH Hannibal. He’s homo polled and homo black with that money strip head. The resulting mating of Yuma and Hannibal should hit a home run.

Bred April 27th to SRH Hannibal 5H CSA #1335124 – No Exposure

HOMO POLLED - HOMO BLACK

These Yuma daughters are like peas in a pod. Long bodied, great udders coming, beautiful font ends and very feminine made. 82J is mothered by an exceptional Liner 56U cow. Everyone knows what great cows the Liners are and then you add in the $150,000 Yuma bull. 82J is bred to the Top Tier bull, what an exciting mating as 82J is homo polled and homo black so the result ing calf will be black. What would a black baldy Top Tier bull be worth?

Bred April 4th to WLB Top Tier 456G CSA #1288193 – No Exposure

HOMO POLLED - HOMO BLACK

A really nice baldy Black Cinch daughter with power, style and yet remains very feminine with all her performance. Her mother is a powerful Drake Poker face daughter that has as much power, depth and broodiness as any black cow we have. With Black Joker, Poker Face, Liner 56U and Black Cinch in her pedigree you couldn’t write a pedigree much better and a baldy to boot. Mated early to the Black Epic calving ease son, Wheatland Monument 28H.

Bred April 13th to Wheatland Monument 28H CSA #1346532 – No Exposure

HOMO POLLED

heifer has got me really excited, love the volume, angularity and power of this heifer. She is sired by

Maximus, a ½ blood bull me and Darren Clifford of Chauvin, AB bought together. We bred just a few cows to him the first year, kind of experimenting a bit. Well, this heifer has got me thinking we need to do more of it. With her shape, setting up a beautiful udder, her capacity and showiness I think there’s a lot of future in her. We think this heifer is pretty special.

Welcome to Simmsational. This is an awesome group of consignors to work with.

I believe in selling my best females to go out into the industry. I value low input, docile and easy doing animals. As everywhere, cow families are important, as shown by the bred heifer and heifer calf out of maternal sisters. I have had some awesome moisture this fall so things are definitely looking up.

Hope everyone has a great fall and look forward to seeing you December 8th in Moose Jaw. Cattle available for viewing any time at the farm.

See you soon, Sandra

kept in herd. Valley Girl 57K is out of a maternal sister to the 1E cow. Her sire produces model females with ideal udder structure and about as perfect a foot as you will find.

AI to WS Epic on April 16/22 exposed CCCC Red Chip 98F April 23 to June 3/22 checked safe to AI date July 5/22.

test pending Valley Girl is one of the best females I have ever bred. She is a deep sided, long bod ied, big hipped, feminine fronted female. She is not a pet but is easy to handle. She has a maternal sister in herd. Her dam is a maternal sister to the dam of 85J. Her sire was my pick of the bull calves out of the WLB dispersal and purchased in partnership with Hicks Simmental. He has done an outstanding job in his first calf crop producing females at the top of the herd and bull calves that are quickly rising to the top as well.

Welcome to the 45th Annual Simmsational Sale.

We are so happy to be a part of this great long lasting sale. Once again this year we are offering two bred heifers and two open heifers that are from the top of the pen and hard to part with. Both bred heifers were AI’d early April and confirmed bred to that service mid May. Any of these heifers will make great additions to any herd.

Feel free to give us a call with any questions or stop by the farm and see the heifers at home. Videos will be available on DLMS and Transcon website. We hope to see everyone sale day!

RYS 29J is a clone of her mother. She is the type of heifer that will get out there and get the job done with every calf she raises. This heifer has impressive volume, which is well-carried on a super square foot. 29J is setting up a beautiful udder, which is no surprise as her mother maintains a flawless udder at seven years of age. Her mother, 1D, is to be flushed this spring- she is a cow that has never missed, raising a great calf no matter who she is bred to.

22J is a heifer

shouldn’t be

and would like to keep for ourselves; unfortunately, you can’t keep them all. She is a long-bodied heifer who will mature into a larger-frame cow. We pur chased her dam, 1118Y, with the intentions of flushing her, with 22J being the result of that. A full sibling to 22J is currently working in our herd with an outstanding Hannibal calf at side. You can buy this heifer with confidence, as we know this combination with Hannibal truly works.

AI’d April 1 to SRH Hannibal 5H (SAFE) Exposed April 18-June 3 to CITYVIEW Jamari 31J

OPEN RYS 13K is another outstanding Blockbuster daughter we have on offer. This heifer’s dam, 109C, also produced the bred heifer we sold to Megan Armstrong at last year’s Simmsational sale. You can be confident that this heifer’s udder should continue to be outstanding as she ages, as her dam is an eight-year-old cow with a great udder. She also has the length, spring of rib, and depth we strive to produce.

HOMO BLACK, HOMO POLLED

We absolutely love this RF Captain Black 430B granddaughter and obviously we’re having a hard time parting with her, but we felt that when deciding to showcase females this fall, we couldn’t leave her out of the offering. Lady in Black is an extremely powerful black blaze faced female with a wide top, excellent spring of rib and she is a female that is straight in her lines. We appreciate how she strides out on her sturdy foot and is perfect in her movement when she’s in motion. We truly feel that this female will add a ton of depth to her progeny and will add value as a donor female in any herd. She is a female that is st acked genetically with RF Captain Black 430B, LFE Hot Topic 312W and SVS Captain Morgan 1Z on the top side. She is serviced by the reigning Canadian Western Agribition Grand Champion Simmental

& Agribition Supreme Top 10 Qualifier LLW Card True North G71 who is owned by our great friends at Wheatland Cattle Company and Semex. We truly believe this mating will be extremely valuable to her new owners in the future.

She is a female that brings a lot to the table with names like MRL Integrity 76Y and Hooks Shear Force 38K in her background. Her dam is a no miss female within our breeding program having 3 maternal siblings sell through our annual bull sale and retaining 3 in herd.

Eaglette 145J has excellent eye appeal, depth of body, spring of rib, and a sure foot under her that tracks well in her placement. Eaglette should be a non diluter red female being out of 2 black parents.

Welcome to the 45th Annual Simmsational Simmental Sale!

We are very excited to be a part of this event and to bring our first ever offering of purebred females for your appraisal. Writing this welcome message has turned into a full circle moment for us. I purchased my very first purebred females from Simmsational in 2008. Each of our consignment animals can be traced back to those first females I ever purchased. It seems fitting that we would sell our first purebred females at the place where we started establishing our herd.

We are bringing 3 bred heifers from the heart of our program and the top of the pen. When Cody Coupland toured our herd this summer, we knew some difficult decisions would need to be made. We are excited to see the impact all of these females will have on the new herds they call home.

Feel free to reach out with any inquiries or stop by the farm to view the heifers and our herd!

Welcome to the 45th Edition of Simmsational. We are proud to say our family has been apart of this event for a large number of those high profile sales over the years with a great group of consignors.

In more recent years, we have selected two females to represent our breeding program, and the two we will feature this year may be the most exciting to date. Strong, productive cow families built around longevity and structural soundness are what we are most proud of . These two heifer calves will both be ones to build around in the future.

Feel free to contact us for further information on our offering, and we look forward to seeing you on December 8th.

Here is something pretty special! This will be one of the very first daughters available off the $161,000 R PLUS REDDINGTON who was the highlight of the spring 2021 sale season. He is one of the most exciting bulls to come along in a long time, and we feel he has more than lived up to his hype. He has left a tremendous set of calves that exhibit unmatched depth of body, spring of rib, overall mass and sound structure. This heifer has been a standout from a very young age, and it was a debate all summer whether we could offer her for sale. This female is backed by one of our top cow families that year after year raise some of the top bull calves in our program, including our feature red bull this past spring. If you are serious about adding a female that will be one to build around, look no further. The potential of this female is truly endless!

She exhibits tremendous length,

female is a prime example of what we are striving to

eye appeal and balance. She is stout from every angle, yet sweet through that front third. She catches your eye at first glance, and demands a second look.We have been very pleased with the Supercharged calves and how they have developed, The females stand right at the top of our bred heifer pen and the sons are impressive in their own right. Her dam is a member of our Heidi cow family that is one of our most productive andconsistent. They are very good uddered females, and some of our top bull calves every year are mothered by a Heidi female. This combination of a fresh pedigree, with a top end cow family means the sky is the limit for this female.

We are excited to be bringing these two Blueprint daughters from the top of our breeding program for our first consignments to Simmsational. Lizzy & Unique are both sired by BluePrint who needs no introduction to the industry. BluePrint has become a large part of our AI Program over the last couple of years and we have nothing but great things to say about his females. These two daughters are no exception!

TCC Red Lizzy 25K is a real sweetheart of a heifer, quiet and has been a favorite around here since day one. She has lots of overall style and moves out well. A great project for a junior member and will make a great addition to any herd. She is going to make a great cow for along time.

TCC Red Unique 9K is an attractive, smooth made heifer that is going to be hard to see go! This heifer’s dam, the Unique 486F female was purchased out of the 2019 Sharing the Herd Female Sale from Double Bar D; She is an excellent uddered and good footed cow. TCC 9K has an exciting pedigree and is sure a heifer that you can build around.

These two heifers will add power to any breeding program!
